This year’s Anime Expo at the Los Angeles Convention Center was intense. Not only was there a screening of Evangelion 1.0, there was a screening of an unreleased DVD of the making of Gurren Lagann. There was a VOCALOID panel, showcasing Doujinshi works based on Hatsune Miku, and the other characters. Introduction on how to use Z-Brush, for the 3D artists out there. Many of you studying Japanese may find interesting on discovering how to make money off translation. If you couldn’t make it to Anime Expo 2009, don’t worry! We’ve got you covered.

In short, VOCALOID is like Garageband for Otakus. =]
